Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) showed in vitro mesoderm-lineage differentiation and self-renewal capacity. However, no comparative study was reported on the biological characteristics of stem cells derived from skeletal muscle (SM-MSCs), dermal skin (DS-MSCs), and adipose tissues (A-MSCs) from a single donor in camels. The present study aimed to evaluate the influence of MSCs source on stem cell characteristics. We evaluated proliferation capacity and mesoderm-lineage differentiation potential from SM-MSCs, DS-MSCs, and A-MSCs. They showed spindle-like morphology after homogenization. The proliferation ability was not significantly difference in any of the groups. Furthermore, the portion of the cell cycle and expression of pluripotent markers (Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog) were similar in all cell lines at passage 3. The differentiation capacity of A-MSCs into adipocytes was significantly higher than that of SM-MSCs and DS-MSCs. However, the osteoblast differentiation capacity of A-MSCs was significantly lower than that of SM-MSCs and DS-MSCs. Additionally, after osteoblast differentiation, the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium content significantly decreased in A-MSCs compared to SM-MSCs and DS-MSCs. To the best of our knowledge, we primarily established MSCs from the single camel and demonstrated their comparative characteristics, including expression of pluripotent factors and proliferation, and in vitro differentiation capacity into adipocytes and osteoblasts.
